He's bent on revenge. She's his enemy's granddaughter. He'll marry her...willing or not.
Maxwell, the Duke of Pennington is a man focused on one thing: revenge. He'll stop at nothing to achieve his goal, including marrying the beautiful, unpredictable granddaughter of the man he seeks reprisal against-whether Gabriella is willing or not. As Max inexplicably finds himself drawn to the spirited minx, unforeseen doubts and guilt arise.
Miss Gabriella Breckensole is astonished when the enigmatic Duke of Pennington turns his romantic attentions on her. Debonair and confident, he set her heart fluttering from their first meeting. Far beneath his station, Gabby never hoped to win his favor, and she soon risks losing her heart to the roguish lord.
Until she accidentally overhears Maxwell vowing to return her familial home to his dukedom and learns his courtship is a revenge-filled ploy. Even though he awakened feelings she never imagined possible, Gabriella now considers him an enemy. Can Max make the impossible choice between retribution or forever losing the only woman to ever touch his heart?
What Would A Duke Do is book four in the Seductive Scoundrels series by Collette Cameron. I enjoyed this book. Enemies to lovers is one of my favorite romance tropes. Cameron paints a delightful picture adding humor in splashes here and there. I enjoyed Maxwell the Duke of Pennington’s character. He is funny and droll at times in his verbal sword playing with the heroine Gabriella. “How could she ever have thought the Duke of Pennington amusing or charming? Enthralling. Fascinating. Wholly extraordinary. His black lashed eyes were quite extraordinary. Never before had she seen anyone with two different colored eyes. They enhanced the air of mystery surrounding him. As if he were privy to a secret no one else knew. She’d seen it in the way he observed her through his heavy lidded smoldering eyes.” Gabriella is fiercely loyal to her family but finds herself inextricably drawn to her enemy the Duke. I loved it!!! I was given a copy of this book.
